Rory McIlroy couldn’t hide his disdain for the conditions at the Scottish Open. “The greens are so s–t,” McIlroy said Sunday on a hot mic as he missed a putt wide during his final round at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland.

Backspin: His year was slowed by a rib injury that kept him out for two months. Padraig Harrington (2007-08), Tiger Woods (2005-06) and Tom Watson (1982-83) are the only back-to-back Open champions the last 50 years.

After the round, McIlroy and Gotterup retreated to the starter's hut to sign their scorecards and make the result official. As Gotterup finished signing his card, video footage shows McIlroy graciously congratulating the American on an unbelievable win.
